The staff of the “Lviv Regional Directorate” branch of the National Public TV and Radio Company petitions the Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman, head of the State Commission for TV and Radio Oleh Nalyvaiko, head of the supervisory council of the National Public TV and Radio Company Tetiana Levedeva, head of the Ukrainian trade union of culture-related professions Liudmyla Perelyhina to influence the current situation where the salary funds for the employees of regional branches are being systematically reduced. This petition was published in a form of an open letter at the website of the TV and Radio company “Lviv”.

Also, the staff is complaining about the practice of huge bonuses for top managers in spite of the dire financial situation and lack of funds for salaries for other employees.

The letter claims that if no measures are taken regarding the systematic cuts of salaries, the network of branches of the national TV and Radio company will be marginalized and will decay.
